Frequently asked questions
How do I find my ClickUp Personal API Token?
Log in to ClickUp, navigate to Settings > Apps, and click Generate under the Personal API Token section.
What is the difference between a Space and a List?
A Space is a top-level grouping for high-level organization, while a List contains the actual individual tasks you want to track.
Can I filter for archived tasks?
The current toolset is optimized for active project management and typically retrieves non-archived tasks to maintain workflow focus.
How does Google ADK connect to MCP servers?
Import the MCP toolset class and pass the server URL. ADK discovers and registers all tools automatically, making them available to your agent's tool-use loop.
Can ADK agents use multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Declare multiple MCP tool providers in your agent configuration. ADK merges all tool schemas and the agent can call tools from any server in a single turn.
Which Gemini models work best with MCP tools?
Gemini 2.0 Flash and Pro models both support function calling required for MCP tools. Flash is recommended for latency-sensitive use cases, Pro for complex reasoning.
